Specification 0f Application filed To all whom it may concem: r

Be it known that I, JOHN PAUL HALLER, a citizen of the United- States,x residing at New Orleans, in the parish of @rieans and State of Louisiana, have invented eel-min new and useful Improvements in Steve Draft Devices, or" which the following is a specification.

This invention relates to a combined. sheet-metal draft device and door lei Womb burning stoves.

In stoves for burning Weed exclusively it is desirable to have in the Wall of the steve and; near the bottem of the firewhamber a deer whereby access to the interior Kiley be bed the insertion of a pair of tongs 0r e'abhez" instrument, when occasion arises for e pee sen 0 replenish a fire that has become iGW. But ordinarily su'ch doe-s form creek around the border edge that permits air t-e enter the stove and ereae a draft that causes a bright fire to bum. e smetnerred fire is desired.

The ebjeet of this inventien is w previde ar Weed-burning stoves an improved e055: smueeion of door-opening and deer whereby the deer will close the epening with an e tight fit around its edge, and mounting in the door an air-inlet devise by which to rewiate the entrance inte the stove of the volume off air 131 1245 will besi; suit 1 condition 01- the wood.

The doorpanel a, on its outer side has a eireular tilepression 14, which is provided with air-draft holes, 2), grouped in three series; tangs, w, are panelled from the sheetmetalv of this circular depression and said tangs are spaced equidistant around the eir ings in the disk will eoineide in position with the series of air-draft holes, 1., in the door panel, as seen in Fig. 1, or with only a part of said air-draft holes. The disk at its front has a handle, 2, formed at the cireular edge by a coil of metal. i this coiled handle, 2, the air-regulatingdislc' 06 may he turned to open more or less of the ur-draft holes, 11, and thus the exact volume By grasping Q of air to suit the particular condition of the lire! ma enter the stove. i

Haring thus de erihed my intention what 1 elaini and desire to secure by Letters latent is:----

A eomhined dtuir-lrame and air-dral't de- \'iee l'or w:iod-hurniuf 1- stores eomprising a sheet-metal trame having a door-open ng \\'lio -'e edge'is hent ha -h into vsaid opening; and towns around the opening; an elastic pat-king Ushaped in erossseetion; a sheet-- metal door, N, hinged at its hottoni to the lower part ol said frame and having a horder edge rim. a panel whose outer surl'aee is (l(l)l('$. ttl within said horder edge and forms a eontinnous surroumling wall at a right angle with respeet to the v url'aee of the panel whit-h wall lits'into said elastiepaeltinp; when the door is elosed and produces; an air-tight joint; and a drat' tair inlet, regulator mounted on said door-panel, wl'lerehy ae 'ess may he had into the store when the door is open, and the dratbair that may enter the store when the said door is closed will he restrieted to sueh volume as the said regulator may he adjusted to admit.

In testimony whereof l allix my signature in present-e of two witnesses.
